Garmin ecoroute

UPDATE: TWICE is reporting that ecoRoute works with 2xx and 7xx series nuvis.

Another Garmin announcement today is ecoRoute, a software update for some nuvi units that adds a "less fuel" route option. Additionally, ecoRoute includes a Fuel Report that tracks fuel usage over time, and a Mileage Report that monitors mileage and fuel usage on a per-trip basis.

You can see if your nüvi is compatible with ecoRoute through a free, downloadable software update at www.garmin.com/ecoroute.

    EcoRoute appeared on my nüvi 205w with the 4.80 software update. Not entirely convinced of it’s utility, especially as I don’t know exactly how many mpg my car does!

    Just spend an hour trying to install it on my 250. Ecoroute doesn’t appear after the update.
